The awnbrella does an excellent job of shedding rain water.
That’s amazing! If needed for travel, how long do they take to install/remove?

BTW, are you full timing in your Avion now?

Awnbrella Installation takes about an hour. You need to screw the trailer side mounting cup to the Avion, so caution there.
Tear down is about 15 minutes for the Awnbrella,if that.

So, with the threat of 80 MPH gusts coming, I sensibly dropped the awning. Took 15 minutes Total, Awnbrellas and all.
Also, I need to revise the quantity of Awnbrella supports for a 23' awning. The number of Awnbrella supports is 6.

Sounds like a wise move. Fifteen minutes isn’t bad at all.
